June 10 (UPI) -- Babyface, Jennifer Hudson and other music artists honored actor and singer Jamie Foxx during the BET Awards Monday.

The Office alum Craig Robinson took to the piano to introduce the various performers paying tribute to Foxx.

"Tonight, we celebrate a man who starred in his own TV show and sang the theme song 'Simple things are all you need,'" Robinson said. "As the kids say, it was a bop. We wanted to celebrate you tonight, and to kick things off, ladies and gentlemen, his mother named him Kenneth, but the world knows him as Babyface."

Babyface was joined by Ludacris on the stage for a cover of Foxx's "Unpredictable," while Tank and Jennifer Hudson performed "Night and Day." Doug E. Fresh, Teddy Riley and T-Pain teamed up on "Blame It."

Foxx, 57, was among the Ultimate Icon Award recipients at the BET Awards.
